M2 CS adaptive suspension

Watched 3 M2 CS reviews tonight and ALL mentioned suspension was more compliant AND steering/handling were better. Is there a suspension upgrade option for M2c that can improve both comfort and steering/handling?

That's the idea, better handling and braking.

However, I never drove one to see how it operates, in practice.

The M Performance Suspension (MPS) supposedly does just that. It's an adjustable coilover system. It's my next mod. Targeting early spring.

I've read the threads on M Performance. Lot's of different perspectives, because suspension firmness is subjective, but my takeaway was the M Performance is firmer than stock

Hmm...my takeaway was that because it’s adjustable it could be both more or less firm depending on the settings.

It is not. It depends on how you adjust it.

I just adjusted it recently to a softer mode for winter time and it is a bit softer now than the stock one.

On a related note, I drove a used M3 cs today. Rides much better than my M3 with passive suspension.
